Laparoscopy consists of surgical access performed using diminutive incisions in the abdominal wall followed by the establishment of pneumoperitoneum, representing an advance in postoperative recovery compared to open surgery. Models of training in laparoscopic surgery were developed to accelerate the technique’s learning. The main ones are inanimate models, animated simulators, and virtual reality (VR). These models seek to allow surgeons in training to acquire basic skills in laparoscopy, such as hand-eye coordination, dexterity in using tweezers, and improvement of depth perception in two-dimensional (2D). The high costs of training models have led institutions and surgeons to look for less expensive models, such as training boxes and VR simulators. However, they do not offer the same learning experience as VLP training on pigs or corpses. Performing the pneumoperitoneum and using video set equipment is expensive. A polyethylene model was developed without establishing pneumoperitoneum to reduce these costs and the complexity of VLP training in cadavers.
